Nrgize

I wanted to get a protein shake or juice after working out and the smoothie/​juice bar had just closed so I checked on Unilocal to see what my other options were. As expected, most places were closed (it was a little after 8) but this spot closed at 9 so I quickly drove over. Parking was easy at that time of night though it’s not the greatest area so don’t leave anything in your car out for safety.
Nrgize is located inside of a 24 hour fitness, right before the actual gym (so anyone can stop by even if you’re not a member). They had ran out of all types of milk when I got there but the lady working was helpful at letting me know what she could make and which smoothies that had milk would taste ok made with water. I decided on a drink that didn’t have any milk anyways, just some fruits, coconut, and protein power. I enjoyed it though found the protein powder to maybe be a tad overpowering. Not sure how you can avoid that really though (unless you get it without the protein powder). They have lots of boosts and things you can add for an additional cost. I think I paid about $ 6 for my drink and since it was quite filling (I didn’t eat dinner and just drank this) I thought the cost was fine. Overall, this is a pretty convenient place to come for a smoothie, protein shake, or juice, whether you go to the gym here or not.

The drinks are good and the staff are friendly however these drinks are NOT healthy for you unfortunately. They don’t carry unsweetened almond milks and only have non fat (cows) milk, both of which are filled with sugar =/​
If this were not located in the gym my rating wouldn’t be so harsh but I’ll just stick with the quest bars from here if I need something on the go.

This was a seriously bad smoothie. For $ 7 I expect my smoothie to be fresh and delicious. I also had to walk up 3 flights of stairs into the 24 hour fitness which stunk and was really hot in there.

Sadly this place has redone their menu, and while it still looks good, it now costs twice as much! I can’t even order what I used to get every time.
Another sell out…

It tastes so good! I always get the berrylicious and for 30 grams of protein… you are WINNING!! I I LOVE that they have the little stamp card especially since I am not a member of the gym there, feels like an incentive.
Do yourself a favor and dont keep walking up to starbucks… just stop here!

This is my favorite smoothie spot. There smoothies are better then Jamba Juice.
They have fruit smoothies, fresh juice, meal replacement smoothies, pre-​workout smoothies, and protein shakes. Some of these smoothies provide a low-​cal option. I enjoy these smoothies as a great post-​workout healthy snack/​meal or just one for breakfast!
The prices here are great too. A small smoothie cost $ 3.25
My favorite: Mango Peach Fruit Smoothie or Strawberry Peach Fruit Smoothie

It’s around $ 5 a smoothie, you won’t find anything cheaper in SF. Tons of options like fruit smoothies, juices, power smoothies, meal replacements, etc.
I love that they design each smoothie for a purpose like boosting your immunity, muscle recovery, and fat burning. I got that fat fighter which is a strawberry banana smoothie with amino acids and l-​carnitine, i believe. It was delicious :) Reminded me of surf city squeeze smoothies.
I would come to this 24 just to get a smoothie, but it’s even better because it will motivate me to go to the gym.

This may be the last smoothie in the city for less than $ 8. Bravo nrgize for keeping it real! I always appreciate their yummy selections after a work out and their loyalty punch card makes it even more reasonable.

THIS IS NOT JAMBA JUICE. I’m from SoCal and walked 1.2 miles to get some Jamba here. ONLY to find out that it’s not a 24 hour fitness juice bar. FAIL!

THIS IS NOT Jamba Juice, I have tried to edit the business tab a few times. This smoothie bar is better than Jamba Juice imo. It is located inside the 24 fitness right before the sign in desk so you can hit it up even without a membership.
Their protein shakes are real good, I always get something gone bananas or peanut butter cup. They are quick and friendly here as well.

Couldn’t find the place. It seems this location closed.

TIP #1: You can make your own smoothies! Start with the base (milk-​based or soy milk), choose the fruit combo you want, and then choose your add-​ins. It’s $.75 per add-​in, or two for $ 1. Not on the menu: sugar-​free chocolate sauce!
TIP #2: The meal replacement smoothies are worth the price. It’s nearly impossible to get the same nutritionals as a Berrylicious smoothie without paying more.
TIP #3: Get a loyalty card – buy 7 smoothies, get your eighth one free.
Confession: sometimes, after work when I’m really tired, I stop by here to get a meal replacement smoothie and call it a night. It’s filling, nutritious, and yummy. It’s quick and easy. It’s in my gym. So what if I didn’t work out right before dinner? Work is one really long workout. (I know, excuses, excuses.)
If you’re looking for a supersweet candy treat smoothie, go to Jamba Juice.
They also offer breakfast for us earlybirds at the gym: oatmeal with toppings, bagels, coffee, and tea. Cheaper than a comparable meal at Starbucks or any other café, and probably healthier too. And sometimes, if they made too much of a smoothie, they pour the leftover stuff into little sample cups. Perfect to grab on the way out of the gym.
If you have any questions, the employees are all young and eager to help!

Expensive, but satisfies the juice/​smoothie craving.
I’d prefer Jamba Juice, cause you get the same for less money.
If it wasn’t for its perfect location (inside the 24hr fitness) I’d given it 3 stars, but the location definitely makes this place. Who doesn’t like a cool, refreshing, healthy (–ish) drink after a good work out?

This juice bar beats jamba juice to the fullest!
Everything is super fresh… the staff are friendly… and it’s conveniently located on your way out of the gym. Sometimes, it’s too conveniently located and I found myself absolutely addicted at one point. Haha.
My favorite? Orange apple juice… don’t forget to pick up a frequent buyer card.

I ordered a small strawberry mango smoothie for $ 3 and was not disappointed. Good taste, low fat and low carbs, all at a decent price. Being located in the 24 hour fitness makes it an ideal place for a post-​workout beverage.

how does jamba juice even stay in business? 120 calories for a large mango/​banana smoothie at nrgize. that’s a couple sips of your mango-​a-​go-​go at jamba. i could have 10 of these a day and stay within my 1200 cal a day. best place ever. this is at the 24 hour on van ness.

I love that the smoothies and juices are low cal. A low fat yogurt is about 80 cal, these are around 70 – 200 cal depending which one you get. Try one! They also have a frequent card. Buy 7 the 8^th free. Btw it taste almost the same as jamba juice but way more healthier. Jamba juice do have some low cal/​fat drinks but it’s not as good as this! And it help to cut the hunger right after workout.

Their shakes are fantastic.

I love working out, and then having a refreshing cold smoothie or a fresh juice. Well, Bingo! I usually order the strawberry peach smoothie. The small size is plenty big for me. I obsessively check how many calories are in food, and I was amazed by how small the amount of calories are in their smoothies/​drinks. WTF? Was I reading that right? 60 calories in a smoothie?! No way. Way. Also, I had a fresh juice of carrot/​apple the other day which was delish.
They also have specialty smoothies, for example, ones with a lot of protein, ones for immunity boosting, fat burning, etc. And even these are low-​cal!
Now don’t get me wrong, I love Jamba. However, these smoothies have less sugar and less calories. Love that.

This is the new juice bar that took the place of Jamba Juice in the Van Ness 24 hour fitness. It promises to be way more low calorie and fresh and it is… I was pleasantly surprised! Super tasty and super fresh and WAY healthier than Jamba Juice.
